Chereads / The Locked System / Chapter 33 - Escape

Chapter 33 - Escape

Hayato walked to the red carpet taking some distance from the knights, he never took his eyes off the old man seeing him with full hostility

The knights and the king were seeing him with doubt but the old man was seeing him with a cold face

" Father? why are you questioning that knight? " The King turned to see the old man with a face full of doubt

" He isn't a Knight " The Old King said to the King with calm, then he puts his attention on Hayato again and says " Or all the Golden Knights never discovered the great power of this knight or he is an intruder "

" ..!! " The King had an incredulous look and he turns to see Hayato with a serious face

" ..... " Hayato didn't say anything but *PUFF* he undoes his Transformation Jutsu and everyone present and even the old man was surprised after seeing that

" Your Majesty! he-he has the same features that the witnesses described! he is one of those who escaped from the mansion of the Brywood family after the Count was found decapitated! " One of the knights yelled with surprise after he saw Hayato's mask

" What!? he is one of the culprits!? " The Captain of Golden Knights yelled in surprise and turns to see Hayato

" So you were the one who killed Gerald and Beatriz " The King clenched his fist and said with an angered voice

" Not exactly, I just kill that wimpy lad... what was his name again... oh, yeah, Bennett " Hayato said carelessly ' Although Bennet was killed by Dye, I will take the blame for that '

" What did you just say??!! you killed little Bennett!! " The King was furious seeing Hayato and he clenched his fists

" Yes, I did kill him, in my defense, he and his uncles tried to kill me first but they were the ones who died instead, those overconfident weaklings " Hayato said with an innocent voice

" Bastard!! you even killed Andrew and Allen!! " The King grits his teeth with anger, he was ready to attack Hayato

Hayato turned serious and he activated his Sharingan and Demon Mark

" Stop right there Dalibor! I will deal with him " The Old King said with a cold voice

" But father! he killed my daughter's fiance! It should be me the one who kills him! " The King said with a surprised voice

" A few moments before, you were stronger than him, but now his energy changed completely, it looks darker... more powerful... you can't beat him " The Old King turned solemn and the King and all the knights present were very shocked

Hayato sees the Old King with a serious face and thinks' How can this Old man see my power? He even revealed my transformation... Don't tell me! Does he have the same eyes as the princess? no, they seem to be more powerful than hers, an upgraded version maybe? '

Hayato puts more attention on Old King's eyes, scanning him with his Sharingan ' Yes the same energy as the princess, so that's a hereditary power just like the Sharingan, then the princess's eyes can be as powerful as his '

The Old man began to walk towards Hayato, releasing a powerful killing intent

Hayato paid attention to the knights and there he saw Conrad, making a surprised face he thinks ' Sorry Conrad, I hope you can survive this '

Hayato makes quick hand seals and the Old King makes a face of doubt, Hayato finishes the hand seals but he didn't attack

" Well, Old man, I really would like to stay and have a nice chat with you, but I have to go " Then he puffs his chest, and finally he attacks " Katon: Gōka Mekkyaku! (Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame) " Hayato began to fill the chamber with fire

*BOOOM* " WATCH OUT!!! " The Knights retreated to the bottom of the chamber but the Golden Knights started to move forward and all of them stabbed the ground with their swords at the same time to then yell

" Sword Shield Pillar!!! " A white light rose from the swords of the Golden Knights until they form a pillar that reached the roof of the chamber, causing some cracks, the pillars gathered together creating a large white wall

*BOOM* Hayato's attack impacted the white wall and it started to crack *BOOM* the white wall exploded sending the Golden Knights flying backward " Argh!! " but they achieved to stop Hayato's attack

Half of the chamber was burned even some stone pillars are gone. On the King's side the pillars, the roof, and the floor was damaged from the explosion, The King and the Old King used their arms as a shield to resist the explosion of the white wall but all the Knights were on the ground

" What was that!! even I can't destroy the Sword-Shield Pillar of the ten Royal Guards!!" The King yelled with astonishment

" You bastard, to be able to do that at least you have to be an Intermediate Earth Magic Swordsman " The Old King said with hatred

" That means he is stronger than me??!! " The King was startled

" At least, son, but he maybe is stronger, I will kill him right here that way I will eliminate a huge threat to my Kingdom " The Old King said with a cruel face

" I already told you old man, I will leave now...and you can't stop me " Hayato said coldly, he turned around to started to run to the wooden door, *SWOOSH* *SWOOSH* He cut the door in pieces with his katana without stopping running

" I will show you that you are wrong! Great Speed Boost! " The Old King began to chase Hayato at great speed with the king behind him

Conrad was getting up after the impact, he just suffered some small injuries ' I know that Master killed Bennett and his uncles, but killing the whole Brywood family is something I doubt he has done, maybe there is something else, I don't know '

" Ugh... Damn it.. we are tired after using the Sword-Shield Pillar... but we need to help the King and his Royal father " The Captain of the Royal Guards said with frustration and all the Golden Knights start to stand up slowly they seem very tired

" Don't worry sir, I think that the King and his Royal father can beat him without our help " One of the Golden Knights said with confidence

" Captain Conrad, go to sound the alarm, make sure to advise the Wyvern riders, that way he can't escape the castle " The Captain of Golden Knights said with a tired voice

" Yes sir " Conrad left through the door where the king entered the throne chamber ' I will try to gain you some time Master, I hope you can escape safely '

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hayato was running as fast as he could, then he makes hand seals and " Kage Bunshin No Jutsu (Shadow Clone Jutsu) " *PUFF**PUFF**PUFF* 5 clones appeared and they ran in different directions, but Hayato keep running in the same direction, after all, he had memorized the way he took to the throne chamber and now he was near to the room of the princess

' I'm almost there my Shadow Clones must have distracted them ' Hayato passed the hallway that went to the princess's room "' No way! ' Hayato felt that some of his clones dissipated and then a shadow materializes on his left side surprising him a lot " What!? "

" You are the real one or you will turn into smoke as well? " The Old King said with a cold voice and *PAM* he punched Hayato's left arm with a lot of strength

" Ugh! "*PUM* Hayato was sent flying to the wall and his body makes a crack in the wall. He stands up slowly but now his left arm was hanging and bleeding

Hayato was bleeding on his back too and thought with anger ' F*ck, that old bastard broke my arm with just a punch and how did he deal with all my clones so fast... no, there are still two left '

" You must be the real one, die " The Old King charges against Hayato again

" Damn it!! Chidori!! " Hayato swings his katana covered with Chidori, from up to down, trying to cut the Old King but " Impossible " Hayato sees the Old King moving slowly, but he can't react quickly

The Old King evaded Hayato's attack and punches Hayato's left ribs, sending him flying again, but this time he went through a window that was in the hallway, shattering the glass that made him a few cuts all over his body

Before he can land the Old King appears in front of him and he punches his face causing his mask to break in some parts, his mouth and right eye are now exposed

' Ugh… he broke my ribs too... I don't think I can use hand seals anymore, now what? ' Hayato was bleeding from his mouth and nose. He puts his right hand on his left side ribs and then he stands up slowly

" What happened? Didn't you say that you could escape from me? " The Old King said mockingly and then the king arrive behind him

" Father!! finish him off!! " The King screamed with hate the moment he arrived next to the Old King

Suddenly a strange sound came from above coming directly to the King " What the..!! " The King turns to see above him and saw another masked man with a blue sphere falling directly towards him

" Rasengan! " *PUM* " Agh! " The clone smashes the King to the ground sending pieces of his armor and cape flying everywhere

" Dalibor! " Yelled the old King seeing his soon being crashed to the ground then " You bastard " he charges against the clone very fast and *PUFF* he hits it making him disappear he turns to see Hayato again and when he saw his smirk he frowned then

" Watch out father! " Yelled Dalibor who was on the ground when he saw another clone charging towards the old king this time with two blue spheres in his hands

" How annoying " Said the old king with an angered face and he sent a punch towards the clone as the clones say " Rasengan Barrage "

*BOOM* The fist of the old king and the clone's Rasengans clashed causing an explosion that makes both retreats from each other. The clone was sent flying until it clashed with the castle wall to then disappeared but the old king just takes a few steps back making a surprised but angered face after the attack, he saw his right hand which was the one he used to attack the clone and noticed that it was slightly injured

Hayato grins coldly and laughs like a madman " HAHAHA! do you see old bastard! you thought that that was my limit, I haven't used my full power yet! " Then Hayato activates his Mangekyou Sharingan and he begins to release a purple smoke around his body

" Hmm? " The Old King made a very solemn face

" ....!! " The king has a horrified face and he doesn't dare to stand

' The Susanoo is the only way I have to escape alive but if I overuse it, I... Wait! I know a better way! Syt, buy me the Hiraishin no Jutsu (Flying Thunder God Jutsu) '

[ ' -5,000 System Points ' ]

[ ' You still have: 6,550 System Points ' ]

' Now give me the kunai! '

[ ' You have learned it but you have to buy the Kunais apart ' ]

' F*ck, I don't have enough System Points then I will put the seal on my Katana ' Hayato places the seal on the katana and some seals appear

" You are too dangerous! Die you monster! " The Old King was already in front of Hayato ready to crush his skull with a punch

" You will remember this day " Hayato said with a cold voice and he covers his katana with his Chidori again making the old king doubt for a second

" ... " Hayato throws his katana into the air and then he disappeared evading the Old King's punch "..!? " The King and the Old King had incredulous faces, then the Old King turns to see above him and saw Hayato throwing his katana far away, to then disappear again

" !!?? " The Old King was speechless again

" Where did he go!? " The king said with a startled face as he was getting up it seems that the attack he received injured him slightly thanks to his armor that was now in a very poor state

" Space magic! I never thought he was capable of using such legendary magic " The old king turned to see his son and yelled " Call the Wyvern Riders! we can let him leave the kingdom! make sure that anyone that has the same injuries as he gets arrested! " The Old King said in a serious voice

" Yes! father! " The king responds and leaves

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hayato catches his sword in mid-air, then he throws it again into the roof of the hostel where Alyra and Dye were and finally he teleports again

Hayato landed on the roof to then fell on his knees, putting his right hand on his broken ribs

" *CAUGH* " Hayato caught some blood and he extended his right hand to remove his cracked mask " I have... to use... my last... Senzu Bean "

[ '-1 Senzu Bean' ]

The Senzu Bean appeared in Hayato's right hand and he eats it making all of his injuries disappear " Now I have to leave this kingdom with Dye and Alyra, that Old bastard was really strong but soon I will surpass him " Hayato walked on the wall of the hostel and he entered his room through the window

" Hayato you are here! " Alyra receives him with a sweet smile

" I hate your Grandfather " Hayato said with a little smile

" Eh? " Alyra was confused
